  • Continuously tunable solid state ultraviolet coherent light source
    Patent number: 5633883
    Abstract: A compact solid state source of coherent laser light in the range of about 298 nm through about 355 nm utilizes a Nd:YAG or Nd:YLF laser to pump a tunable Ti:Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 laser. The beam from the Nd:YAG/Nd:YLF laser is then combined in a nonlinear optical crystal with the tunable beam from the Ti:Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 laser to provide a continuously tunable laser beam in the range of about 298 nm through about 355 nm.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 17, 1994
    Date of Patent: May 27, 1997
    Assignee: Cedars-Sinai Medical Center
    Inventors: Weiqiang Shi, Warren S. Grundfest
